With clear, blue sky, a warm
sun, and splendid roads for travel
the Nebraskan rejoices over his de
lightful November. If the troubles
iucident to the life of man here were
only absent, it would 6eem almost a

who live in Nebraska during "the
circled seasons' course" become de
lighted with it.

good benefit. Without their pres

recognition by the citizens of Co
lumbus. Rev. R. Christison, of this city,
assisted Rev. J. M. Wilson last Sab
bath week, at Madison, on a sacra

ing the meeting. While at Madison
Rev. Christison delivered an instruc

demonstration of the truthfulness of
the Gospel.
The Congregational Church Fur

6tolcn from the ranche of tho North
Brothers on the Loupe, supposed to
have been the work of a baud of
Sioux Iudians. They were followed
by the Major, Lute and two other
men, but they failed to come
up with them. The Indians with
the horses passed the camp of some
neighboring ranchmen on the Dis
mal the following morning, three of
whoso horses they had previously
stolen and had with them, but they
were armed to the teeth, and were
not attacked, and no attempt made
to recover the horses. The Major in
a letter to his brother J. E., says that
if his party had come upon the reds
they would have given them a
"turn" for the possession of the hor
ses, armed to the teeth or not.

Some time since a "protective"
fire got away from David Jones and
burned up considerable property
belonging to his neighbors among
others a lot of grain for Spencer C.
Osborn. We aro informed that
since that time Mr. Jones has sold
his homestead and paid Mr. Osborn
$100. The matter is considered
creditable to both men as neighbors,,.
because Mr. Osborn never madcany
demand for remuneration, and' no
collection could have been made by
law from Mr. Jones.

The M. E. District Conference
held in Omaha last week was full
of interest. Dr. Slaughter presided,
and Rev. J. C. Johnson was elected
secretary. The reports from the
various charges were encouraging,
and the outlook hopeful. Among
most important topics considered
was the -'Problem of Christian Be-
nevolcnce," which was abry discuss-.f
cd by Dr. Slaughter and others.
Also the temperance question was
discussed at great length. ThcCon
fercn'cc put itself on "the record by
asking the legislature for-n prohib
itory law, and signed a paper fd
that effect.
lK--Gustavo Ilellborn has removed
his establishment to Nebraska Ave.'
opposite the ClotheJJouse, to the
rooms formerly occupied by J. A.
Baker. He has excellent goods, and
guarantees his work to be equal to'
the best. It is well known that it
takes experience and care to make
good workmen in any line of indus
try, and also that iu the old world
nn apprentice receives these more
than he docs here. Mr. Hellborii
learned his trade in Dresden, and
learned it so well, that he can fit the
handsomest American in the hand
somest style. Examine his coods.
and givo him your measure.
Baker & Gillett haye on hands
a hundred and fifteen head of cattle,
besides a lot of hogs, which they are
fatting for market. They expect to
feed a hundred and fifty cattle.
Frank's stock yards are very neatly
arranged, with conveniences for
feeding, watering and shelter. His
feed tables, we think, deserve meu-
tiou, as an improvement on those
generally in use. The are made iu
the usual way, of two-inch plank,
but in" hollow squares, which makes
them self-bracing and 6trong, be
sides securing a good place for hogs.
-This firm have done considerable
business in the stock Iine'during the-"
past summer, and theirs is the bpst-J
solution wo know of the vexed
question of labor and capital, be-
cause hero they aro working togcth--
er side by side, not only in harmony,
but with added benefit. Let mcri-'
torious labor and cautious, capital,
unite,aud divide tho proceeds of the
joint-stock company thus formed,
and hard times and communism will
both die an easy, natural death.

We have men of ability who could
interest an audience in lectures.
plenty of them to make a good
course, and then thero are the lovers
of the imitative art who could pic
ture to our eyes the world of pas
sion, and the musicians could bring
us nearer the ideal world by the
"concord of sweet sounds." We
could select men in the town com
petent to fill with honor any public
station in the land, up to the chief
magistracy of the nation, and yet
the little-big home-world so holds
them in fascination that they per
haps think of nothing beyond. Co
lurabus needs a social stirring-up.
An enlarged and enlightened self-
respect is becoming and delightful

Jk Card.
To my friends who supported me
in Uie canvass just past, I return
my thanks. It is true, that it was
not a bloody fight, nor wero there
many scalps taken. The Era man
says, that iu ten precincts I did not
get a single vote ; well, this may bo
true, but where I waged this war I
find I received as many votes as
either of the candidates in the field,
who ran for the same office. While
my friends, I think, will be satisfied
with the vote, I am confident had I
not been so shamclully bulldozed
out of the nomination at the hands
of tho Democratic convention, I
should to-day bo the successful can
didate, the Era to the contrary not
withstanding. I teuder to my
friends my thanks, aud for the fu
ture iet us work for the good of the
wholo people of this couuty.

The object of the meeting was stated
b'y the Vice President, and the gen

cussed. A committee was appoint
ed to present the claims of the
society to the Co. Commissioners at
their next meeting, for the funds
allowed by law to agricultural so

the statutes. As to the suit of Jos.
Gross against the society, it was
ordered that the Vice President be
authorized to employ N. Millett as

'Jin. IIKN6LKY, Editor Eka Dear
isir: lou will please stop my paper. I
do not care to read such a scandalous
sheet as you print. The truth at all
times,, if you would retain subscription.
Josiah Moody.
Mr. Hensley thereupon begins a
tirade upon Mr. Moody and also
upon Mr. Wise, Co. Commissioner
elect, who seems to have no connec
tion whatever with the matter. The
Era calls Mr. Moody "an itinerant
pedagogue of inferior calibre," and
likewise "a self-acknowledged fool."
We have not the pleasure of Mr.
Moody's acquaintance, but those be
hard names, and perfectly unjnstifia
ble, unless, indeed, because of bis
ever having subscribed for the Era,
